sea the east china sea indian. china border so we see a great deal of assertiveness and especially in the south china sea the slow erosion this kind of salami slicing tactics and this is large around the world so the slow slow gradual approach and for example within the e.u. itself it's unable to even make a strong statement on what happened in hong kong only 24 years 27 years since it was signed so it's practically not even halfway through so there's a great deal of concern about china following international norms they say all these nice things they want to be multilateral support international rules and norms but we're not seeing that and to see a country that has democracy be absorbed amoeba like into this new type of authoritarian surveillance i think sends a worrying trend for everybody and in addition we're seeing economic coercion just 2 days ago china warned europe that if they did not embrace what way they were it was unlikely that ericsson and nokia would be able to export their products which are manufa

and china. every russia and china expert seems to roll their eyes at the very mention of the prospect or any fundamental change in relations with washington. will anything change depending how the wheel turns in november? who would russia and china want to see is the next president and why? as usual, more questions than answers but fortunately, we have three extraordinary folks here to answer them. forave the vice president studies at carnegie where he oversees research in washington, beijing and new delhi. 2009, he heldnd key positions dealing with south asia, central asia and at the department of state for china. we also have the director of carnegie's russia-eurasia program is a former national intelligence officer for russia-eurasia. and susan thornton is currently senior fellow at yale law school and former assistant secretary for east asia and pacific affairs at the department of state. all three have had deep experiences in their field and i think they have a unique capacity to approach r

china has none. does not even have a friend except north korea it has treaty obligations with, but that is not much of a friend. there are plenty of resources. the question is does the u.s. have the leadership capacity and the vision to re-weave that willc in such a way that be in our national not? >> thank you. >> congressman, may i jump in? >> please. >> just to align with my colleague's comments. he said china does not have any friends. in a sense it is true, but if you look at how other countries assess their interests with regard to china, it is a sea of red and disinterest with the exception of economic oath than it is a column of green across the line with these countries that see china as an important economic art in her. with the united states saying you have to choose between sn china, it is not going to work for these country governments who want to prioritize choice to build economic resiliency when they are in such a fragile economic state. i want to quickly go back to congressman swalwe

china competitions. but i think we can all agree that our competitiveness with china, we must invest in the capable workforce. it continued to be the most innovative country in the world . we need to maintain a workforce which we can innovate . in the united states, excuse me. is expected to get shortfall. nearly 3.4 million skilled technical workers in just a few workers, by 2022. a recent study found that less than half, there getting any cyber related education. so to promote this, i have introduced multiple bipartisan bill. was a prepare the students for careers in stem education. excuse me. i apologize i have something stuck in my throat. mr. you point out that the trade deficit with china is eliminated million americans jobs. in the manufacturing and agricultural sectors. these jobs have not migrated to other industries. what kind of programs you think we should be investing in. and better prepare our students to enter the workforce. >> thank you for the excellent question. and you are spot on in t

china was paying $39 million a year. and china had too much say.worked it very hard which is a bad thing done by our past administrations, but we were tough, and we're saying -- i was asking, i was saying why are we paying so much more than china? china has 1.4 billion people, we have 325, probably 325 million approximately. nobody can give me the exact count. we're trying to get an exact count but you have over the years many illegals who come into the country. but you could say i 325-350 million people as opposed to 1.4 billion people. and the world trade is terrible. that deal is terrible. the world health is a terrible deal. we've been very tough on the world trade organization, and we've been i guess as touch -- tough as you can get on world health. we've told them we're getting out. they made a lot of bad production, and they said a lot of bad things about what to do and how to do it, and they turned out to be wrong. and they were really a puppet of china. and make no mistake, we hold china fully responsible for concealing the virus and unlea

china's been talking about that china not ours is the 2nd largest. john is countable greatly to the model of the system chance science climate gentle china's and now just the world slogan of this is released a report china stopped last week space contribution to the world. for the last 20 years and china is doing all those its best it can and also the china as working as europe is well. all the german all the european. companies are making more so in china than the other countries fallen in brussels is donald trump strategy the right one just quickly well that will trump even though he has a lot of people who don't support him he was right about china so he was very strong about the china threat we saw under the obama administration the pivot to asia and but i think under trump it's been much more clear and china has moved forward very dramatically but the south china sea the islands we built there the 7 artificial islands were built under the obama administration and the one thing i think that the u.s. has learned that for example that asia infrastr

or actually floodings that in china because there are different sort of. the real power had china is it actually the president or is actually a large a different school was awaiting the party and has a struggle with that and battles against each other there are several heavy. he's that behind she and also behind the times party so whatever he does sometimes actually not to show not even show to the people not even to. spark off of the nationalistic feelings off the people but actually to show to the other heavy personalities behind the curtains that i was actually the right candidate i am the one who can lead the country into the right development margaux a complex picture absolutely and i mean a good reason whereas with a lot of what i've been saying i mean i don't really common so much about power struggles behind the scenes because to me that i'd treat that as a black box but i do think a lot of what the chinese communist party is doing is not necessarily it's not coming from position of strength and we are now here and we're super secure and what we ha

and china intensifies over beijing's claims in the south china sea the un's highest court rules in capitals favor and it's this feud with 4 arab nations that imposed an air blockade on the country increased military activity on the border between azerbaijan and armenia with casualties on both sides. and really well into the sports news and as saudi arabia tries to take over a premier league club. that announces that it's canceling the license of one of the premier league's biggest group calls parties be in sports details coming out this hour and billions reaction to. chinese telecommunications giant huawei will be banned from the u.k.'s 5 g. network the move which is a major backtrack on the british government's previous position were likely delay the rollout of the network by at least a year the ban follows sanctions imposed by the us which claims the company poses and national security threat qua way denies this of the u.k.'s mobile provide. will not be able to buy any new huawei 5 g. equipment after the september 31st they have also been given 7 years to remove all while away 5 g. equipm

china knew there was a virus. they cut off travel domestically inside of china between hannon others but not internationally. i completely agree that the take that jim had on this. we can question their intent, but we do know their actions pray they did allow it to spread. they also spread misinformation through their contact it will help an organization. even as recently as she prevented exports of ppe as wel well. there is quite a few things to add to the list there. now what should be the price of that? that's with the discussion gets complicated. first of all we need a realignment. we need a change in paradigm and how we view china. we need to view them as what they are. they are an adversarial relationship. not quite the sold on choate cold war. you could say they wanted to see america implode from within. i'll think necessarily what china wants, the utter destruction of the united states, our economies are too closely intertwined. what they do want is to spread their domestic outlook onto the world. so we ha

for china.e are seeing the situation, which is china versus the rest of the world in many forms. china has plans to take countermeasures, to retaliate. tere to huawei, hong kong. one of the m options beijiht have is to impose sanctions on u.s. companies -- impose sanctions or put u.s. mpanies on t blacklist. the problem is u.s. tec companies like apple and microsoft are embedded in chinese people's daily lives. this move is going to hurt china's interest as well. all of these retaliations also come with the ris that china will be seen as a bully. but from beijing's point of view, china is the one being bulliedere. >> talk to me about the south china sea. this is an issue which comes up every so often, but the american language has increased. inpresumably, is not going to change cap in terms of what is doing -- change tack in terms of what it's doing. >> wetheard from sey pompeo that the u.s. will use all available tools to support southeast asian allies, wuth regard to china sea and china's terr

all china. and shareholders of american companies immensely benefited from it go ahead. absolutely as of now china is already the largest patent producer in the world larger than the united states and china has a greater vested interest in protecting our rights or china itself or its companies as well as for companies throughout the world and the chinese economic transformation over the past 40 yes is really achieved by the great contribution and hard work and hard labor of the chinese people you don't really need we really . take a rest for weekends we really take holidays off for example we keep working and this is there really is a fundamental reason for the high economic productivity interest and i think if you compare the disciplining or the work. ethics of the chinese people versus many other countries you will see why china's economic development has been so rapid over the last 40 years and i hope really it will continue to accuse china of archaeology rights set is really the wrong tree a

from china and legitimizing taiwan would of course be contrary to china's one china policy. so what does china do? china has leverage over the american officials constituents. american companies, academics, and members of the media have a legitimate and understandable reason to want access to chinese partners and markets. because of the authoritarian nature of chinese commonest party, china has immense power over those same partners and markets. so china will sometimes start by attempted to influence the american official overtly indirectly. china might openly warned that if an american official goes in and take the trip to taiwan, china will take it out on a company from that official's home state by withholding the license to manufacture in china. that could be economically ruinous for the country and would directly pressure the american official to alter his travel plans and the official would know that china was trying to influence him. that would be bad enough, but the chinese communist party does not stop there. it cannot stop there if it wants to stay in power so it u

china destroyed my father. he could have done so much for china. despite all he went through he went back to help the chinese people. in 1967 and 68 a power struggle emerged among various rebel groups in cities around the country armed guards continued to turn around and kill one another. in shanghai she chong ching and other places rebel factions seized weapons from factories the cultural revolution devolved into a massive armed struggle. to combat this in december 1968 mount introduced a new policy measure called the down to the countryside movement the young leaders of the cultural revolution were encouraged to move from the urban to rural areas. under the pretext of learning true values from poor farmers some $16000000.00 people were relocated to rural labor programs for several years. be urban use proving unsuited for farm work but their removal did help me to reduce the violence committed by red guards in the cities michael crook and many of the other foreign red children were not sent to rural areas or ordered to work in factories in beijing

progress indeed it was china i think the fact that china has been at the camp the punched. back off you noticed they just showed it to me because something i'm not sure of that united states puzzle i'm not at all also i think very important is that the american response to to the pandemic has been is nothing less than a disaster ok there's comparisons you can have all around the world we don't have to use chinese the comparison if you don't want you can use europe is a very good example and i think that's projecting and i think it's kind of sad and blaming china is a good that you're not to explain why the reason single payer health care like everywhere else in the world ok i think that's one part of syria i don't want to see a new cold war i don't want to see a conflict here is it just because we're in the silly season of the american presidential election or is there is it is this real and if you could give maybe beijing's perspective is the united states going to ratchet up the the rhetoric and me even more in the face of this rivalry go ahead well i think you know if we

china and russian china pandemic.n the 1951 sci-fi classic, the day the earth stood still, a planets is visited by an alien spacecraft bearing a giant robot and an emissary with a very sobering message, mend your differences or face obliteration. the movie concludes with world leaders pottering their choice. it would be wonderful to believe whether in the form of a global pandemic or a threat to modern space that in fact the world would mend its differences but by the looks of things the rivalries and disputes have only grown, certainly magnified in the time of the pandemic and are likely to continue. they are accelerating pre-existing patterns of tension and competition. nowhere it seems is or are there tensions more evident than u.s. relations with both, rising china and declining russia. both eager to reassert themselves both regionally and globally. it may well be that these three powers will emerge weekend by the current pandemic and to paraphrase carnegie's own alexander o bono, covid is a crisis for all but cou

, china.onathan, good morning. jonathan: thanks for having me. jesse: what has the reaction in china to the closing of the u.s. -- china consulate in houston, texas? was a big surprise to people in china and in america, as well. i don't think anyone had foreseen that outcome even though we know u.s.-china ties have been getting worse by the day. many people have said it is the worst moment now since 1979 when and the u.s. reestablished diplomatic ties. but a lot about that, of people in china were pretty stunned by how quickly things have happened. beijing has shut the u.s. consulate in the southwestern city of chengdu. there has been quite a scene outside that consulate as the and look at what is happening in chengdu and watch the relationship coming apart. jesse: do we see more retaliation coming? do you expect any more u.s. consulates in china closing or perhaps more china consulates in the united states will be closing? right now issense there is parity. i think china has been careful that

china relations at the moment. we had the flag come down in the isngdu mission, and that weakening relations between the powers. the fear now is that ray dalio has spoken for the dollar, and there is probably more technology restrictions. i think ultimately big companies are getting caught up in the mix one way or another. even if they don't want to. it is all adding up to backing up that one from hank paulson a couple of years ago when he warned of tensions between the u.s. and china. a lot of people i spoke to are making the same point. francine: what is the one thing you are watching out for in the next couple of days and weeks? if it does ratchet up, will it be quickly, or will there be some kind of retaliation from the chinese come september? enda: even to those who are skeptical, to begin with, we have some veteran china watchers making the point that with the amount of rhetoric we heard especially from the secretary of state, it doesn't qualify as a declaration of effectively cold war, so i think people are

china has added its name to it. they make solmd, solemn obligations and thou they're breaking up with impunity. in china it's the of rule of chinese law. your point on the rote retroact because i was think that as well i think that's a technical. let me just ask a couple of questions. one, do you have the sense the world will unite with world leaders. i think there needs to be a very serious sanctions resume. the secretary of state he did on may 27th spur sunt to the hong kong human rights and democracy act language he made a very strong statement that hong kong does not continue to warrant treatment under the law same in the same way as before. that's murdered. he stated the administration would eliminate different and special treatment for hong kong including export controls on technologies and mere. and then on june 26th secretary pompeo announced the visa restrictions which we all were calling for those china officials who are undermining the high degree of autonomy. obviously more now has to be done if they hav

and china trump took actions against china in retaliation for its recent moves on hong kong he authorized sanctions on banks and officials involved in imposing a tough new security law that effectively terminates the semi autonomous territories unique status the u.s. move comes to weeks after beijing pass a new law that many say represses fundamental democratic freedoms in the city the law prohibits what beijing views as subversive activities and gives the police sweeping powers to conduct searches and make arrests something the authorities made ample use of as soon as the law was passed. trump also revoked hong kong special trading status today also signed an executive order ending u.s. preferential treatment for hong kong hong kong will now be treated the same as mainland china no special privileges no special it treatment and no export of sensitive technology is without its privileges hong kong could lose its position as a bustling and competitive financial hub wiping out businesses and threatening livelihoods. as the deep freeze between the 2 superpowers shows no signs of thawing hong

and china needs the west needs china and china needs the west.his ultimately, it'sjust the west. i think everybody knows this ultimately, it's just that somehow or other, there's going to have to be a path forward. at the moment, it's so hard to see what it is, given that, like i say, the fighting over the south of china sea, trade, coronavirus, threats going back and forth, more sanctions. yeah, it's just going back and forth, more sanctions. yeah, it'sjust really ha rd sanctions. yeah, it'sjust really hard to see at the moment what it would take for china to get back on a sort of normal footing, if i can put it to you that way, with the west. zhaoyin feng, bbc chinese in washington dc. based in washington, dc, but of course, with lots of chinese contacts there, do you think there are avenues by which china can navigate to a friendlier relationship? it is certainly getting very difficult for china. we are seeing the situation which is china versus the rest of the world in many forms. china is getting attacked here, the government has plans to ta

support for their operations what's the latest in the tech race between the china china and the u.s. so on some posing of tech leaders was held on tuesday as the tech war between the u.s. and china continue to escalate so this gathering called on chinese entrepreneurs to align their business strategies and their business interests with national means and this speech came amid the rising tensions between u.s. and china and the desire by some foreign firms to reduce supply chain dependence on the country so this is very similar to what we reported earlier on in the week with and financial opting to list as i.p.o. in shanghai instead of new york china is increasingly turning to groom homegrown tech giants and tech champions to compete with the u.s. in china so in attendance i gather where some very familiar names such as hc vision as and as mit as well as other companies in the fields of ai semi conductors and smart manufacturing boom bust cohost christiane professor richard wolfe thank you both for your time thank you thank you. and now for the latest in the race for a vaccine the u.s.

through major to the current situation in china u.s. relations is not what china wants and the u.s. is completely responsible for all of this. all of this includes the u.s. imposing sanctions on communist party officials and companies linked to the mass detention of weaker and ordering china to shut its mission in houston citing concerns about espionage the clear is under way the president even full to the potential to cut diplomatic ties completely. as far as closing 'd additional embassies it's always possible it marks the biggest fallout since richard nixon renewed relations in the seventy's when he extended the 100 friendship. all the more significant then the u.s. secretary of state would head to the former republican president library to all but declare a new cold war with the c.c.p. the kind of engagement we've been pursuing has not brought the kind of change inside of china the president nixon had hoped to induce. the truth is that our policies and those of other free nations resurrected china's failing economy only to see beijing by the international hands that were feeding

the us from sup the pressure on china saying it rejects beijing's maritime claims in the south china sea as on will fall. hello i'm barbara starr you're watching out 0 live from london also coming up. too many countries are heated in the wrong direction the world health organization warns that if nations don't take basic health care precautions the pandemic will get far worse as the u.s. the struggles with the worst corona virus outbreak in the world the white house is accused of trying to discredit the man known as america's top doctor. we'll look at how the new ban on the sale of alcohol is going down in south africa . there with another 5 years as poland's president with a narrow victory that is likely to deepen the rift with the e.u. . hello welcome to the program the united states has toughened its stance on china's disputed claims to offshore resources in most of the south china sea calling them completely unlawful secretary of state might pompei or has released a statement saying beijing has no legal grounds to unilaterally impose its will on the region the move is likely to f

and china just basically says no it wasn't us. yes but the australian government as you say been tested not to attribute this time but on previous occasions when there's an attack on the australian parliament last year attacks against a distant 2nd they did attribute to china and this attack looks quite similar in its methodology in its targeting of states institutions and organizations so there are obvious questions about whether this is china again given the tensions between china and australia kogut most recently when we talk about and again using the phrase the state by act of now and that turn this case could be the state or it could be a company which we see in plain sight the obvious examples when we're talking china or the likes of huawei and tick tock which people seem to have to fear about us i mean do you feel those fears a warrant is well there is certainly a worry about chinese state facts and surprises because in china there is no distinction really between the states of the communist party and the private sector and

the china of 2020 is not the china of 1972 or even the china of 20000 or 210. it's across every dimension of power, political, power, diplomatic, economic, innovative, military and even cultural it with an alternative and deeply disturbing model for global governance. china today is led by the commonest party is unlike any challenge we have faced as a nation before. emboldened by the shortcomings and the enablement of the trump administration china's more active and more assertive in the region and in the international community than ever before. indeed, just since this past march china has increased its patrols near the san conkle islands in the east china sea as well as the coercive activities in the south china sea. conducted air and maritime controls intending to threaten taiwan, with india along the actual line of control with the people's liberation army first use of force abroad in 30 years. continue to implement a morally repugnant campaign genocide of cool oppression of the to button people and the crushing of its own civil liberties. just yesterday re

of america by americans and brought to china to give to chinese workers i fear this china stole just didn't steal one job it's the captains of industry and finance that moved their operations is that china's all or is it their fault but it's certainly an american carrier and i think that's that's really where the g. jeffrey is wrong here go ahead yeah i mean i read it really that. the rhetoric is incorrect it was you know politicians and also the captains of industry as you say who are in charge of moving jobs especially manufacturing jobs out of america manage to china and here the not mention mexico into all these other countries in the name of free trade and while i believe that free trade is a good thing because it helps us to buy lots of cheap stuff you know and raise our standard of living our low salaries can help to a more eroding salaries can help to to buy more stuff as a result of that but government has not put into place appropriate protections for american low income or middle income workers and you know that's really the big concern but notwithstanding all of that you
